Girl, 13, ends up in Dallas County Jail with adult inmates after giving false date of birth
The girl, who had run away from home, was released on probation and is now missing again.
According to Dallas police, the 13-year-old girl who spent a couple of weeks in the county jail in the mainstream (i.e., adult) population gave a range of varying ID and age information to arresting and booking officers after she and an accomplice were detained on charges of shoplifting.
This seemingly gross misapplication of graybar incarceration has led to an internal affairs investigation. In the meantime, the girl -- who was a runaway to begin with -- was placed on probation and is now missing again.

Pretty hardcore to lie about your age/identity and choose jail over going back home. Wonder how the parenting situation played out?

So, legally, it's OK for a 17-year-old to be behind bars with adults, but not OK for a 17-year-old to have a drink?

What I want to know, chriss, is if the sky is rabid, what's the difference between a duck?
And also, christ, how are they building 13 year olds these days? They're stripping, passing for adults worthy of jailing, etc., etc.

Clearly, you're not cool unless...Well you really did absolutely nothing with that post. So I guess we're supposed to simply revel in your awesomeness for breathing in our intertron direction?
Man, you're so effing cool. I wish I could date someone worthy of your authority. I mean, prom is like 9 months away...maybe I should ask you now to solidify my awesomeness?
Way to come in 2 days late and throw down your unquestionably badass hammer. Pretty sure chicks entirely dig it, pls educate me with "ur" cockstrong ways. I need this.

Since we're judging, I give Doyles response an 8.2. Pavels question was as valid as your own and far more humorous giving him a 9.5. Travis gets a 5.0. He could have done better. ;)

And we wait.

While I am unclear whose response you were referring to, I will answer with an emphatic YES! My brow and upper lip were all sweaty.

Now that's more like it. BTW, It's spelled S-O-W.
Scott, you should know by now that I'm way too cool for the prom. But we could hang out in the parking lot with some beers and make fun of all the dorks that ARE going. It's 2 days late because some of us have what are referred to as "lives".
